Telangana Discoms’ staff engage in power supply restoration work in Andhra Pradesh

The staff of two Telangana power distribution companies, TGSPDCL and TGNPDCL, have been working tirelessly for the past two days to restore power supply in the cyclone-affected regions of Andhra Pradesh. These dedicated employees, numbering 2,527 in total, have been operating round-the-clock to fulfill their crucial role. According to the utilities' officials, 1,400 staff members from TGSPDCL's 16 circles, along with emergency response team vehicles and various emergency tools, were deployed in Andhra Pradesh.

Similarly, 1,127 personnel from TGNPDCL's northern region were also sent as special teams to assist in the restoration efforts. The teams have been deployed in multiple areas, including Amalapuram, Razole, Draksharamam, Ramavaram, Bhimavaram, Ainavolu, Narsapur, Katrenikona, Mummidivaram, Nadikudi, Ambajipeta, and more. Their primary tasks include replacing and rectifying damaged poles and conductors, distributing transformers, and using emergency tools like pole auger machines, tree-cutting machines, and battery-operated pruners.

The management of both utilities has pledged to send additional personnel if needed to expedite the restoration process. The joint efforts of these Telugu-speaking states exemplify their shared values of cooperation, brotherhood, and humanitarian support during the challenging time following the cyclone.
